> 1.5 - Make sure buffering is row buffering
> 2.5 - Restore table buffering if applicable.

>>I am using several views in my app and need to set indexes on some. I'm thinking the following is the best approach but would like some input from others:
>>
>>1. Set views .NoDataOnLoad to .T.
>>2. Create index for view
>>3. REQUERY() the view to get data
